Operating flights across Central Africa requires navigating a complex regulatory landscape with varying requirements from multiple civil aviation authorities.
This comprehensive guide covers landing permit procedures for the Central African region, including key countries like Cameroon, Chad, Central African Republic (CAR), Republic of Congo, Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Gabon, and Equatorial Guinea.
A Central Africa landing permit is official authorization required to land in any Central African country. Each nation maintains its own civil aviation authority with distinct requirements:
Landing permits are mandatory for:
✔ Non-scheduled flights (private, charter, cargo)
✔ Foreign-registered aircraft
✔ Technical stops exceeding 2 hours
✔ Humanitarian/medevac operations
Exemptions: Scheduled commercial airlines under bilateral agreements may be exempt but must file flight plans.
You need an Central Africa landing permit if you are operating:
✔ Private flights (general aviation)
✔ Charter flights (non-scheduled commercial flights)
✔ Cargo flights
✔ Military or diplomatic flights
✔ Emergency or medical evacuation flights
An aircraft can land at any airport in Central Africa with a landing permit, which is an official license from the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) of Central Africa . All non-scheduled, private, and charter flights require this authorization.
Because their activities are covered by bilateral agreements, commercial airlines that operate regularly scheduled flights do not require a special permission.
